Oh No You Didn't

Plagiarism is a big issue on Steemit.

  • I have had people just Straight copy my content and Repost as their own.
  • Now I am not an aggressive person I will just flag that post.
  • If you copy the wrong person's content you might get Sued!

What you can do to Prevent that?

  • Always, ALWAYS give credit to whoever you copied your content from.
  • Here is How To Add A Link to Text
  • Better yet don't copy. Just create your Own Original content.
  • Or choose the topic that you would like to use, even if someone else posted on that topic and Explain in your Words.

Thanks for your attention!

Sometimes the people don't even know about plagiarism. Thats something new steemians should be taught else cheetah will always arrest and chew them. How funny it is to be caught by cheetah

thanks for teaching me a new word :)

Great gifs lol and a great message too

Thanks :)

Yessir, way too many people on this platform post images without any sort of credit.

"Here's a funny picture I found on the internet" is simply not enough. At least just provide a quick link to the site where you found it proving it isn't yours! Good post!

Linking is important :) thanks for support!

great post

pumped and resteemed kip up the great work,very soon you be swimming with the big fish

Thank you so much @tinashe I have just downloaded Discord How can I get to steem chat? :)

Neat, an old floppy..LOL
I've seen this happen a few times on another social media site I was on too..
Sometimes posted right below my original post..
Then again sometimes it's hard to tell, cause they might not have seen the original post..

O yea FYI, I have that same cat gif file that you just posted in my gif folder..Along with the other 99 gif files in that folder..LOL So I might post it sometime & have never seen your post here..
But doing it blatantly, is definitely a NO-NO!!

Welcome to the platform, I wish everything work out for you. Itโ€™s not easy here but not difficult neither but just ask an extra effort, engagement is the key good luck Iโ€™m @lovedenkillenja Start by following people and they will do the same.

into Mangoes? I hope that means that they get into you!

Oh yes they do! All day every day! haha

This riles me. I really hope the committed members who love Steem will all take the need for flagging very seriously--the platform won't stay good otherwise. It's so disappointing when people do this. Kinda heartbreaking. Xx, Kay

Especially when you see someone just Straight up Copying your content that you worked so hard on! And even worse when they Make more than you do haha

Horrible. I don't understand how so many people have so few scruples. I refuse to play any of that game. The consequences just need to start being real for those people who don't care about anything else so they quit it.

We have the power to Flag them at least that's a good thing. We flag them, their Reputation Score Falls

True. I just did my first flag, after warning the person twice to knock it off with the spam. He improved but was still copy and pasting annoying spam periodically. Hard for me to do (you worry they will just come back and get you for it), but it has to be done sometimes. I hope there will be lots of us--it will only work if it becomes a common practice for authentic spam.

I will make apost about flagging so that People use it more! Let's make this community great :)

Do it! Thank you!
